You don't even need an XM PCR, there is a cable that can be purchased from
http://www.hybrid-mobile.com/products_interface_cable.php that will do the
same thing. I would assume it uses some kind of standard interface. If you
want more information on XM radio on computers I would check out
mp3car.comthey are all into geting XM on their carputers so they would
probably have
some usefull links, or maybe even code to controll the receivers.
